Family broils and jealousies often ending in costly law suits are some of the most common at- tendants upon bequests from private fortunes, Goorge Peabody was one of the first of Americans to appreciate this fact, and the larger portion of his magnificent gifts on behalf of the London poor and the southern illiter- ate was made during his lifetime, Ezra Cornell was another. ness sagacity and sterling common sense laid deep the foundations upon which he erected his noble university, Other large donors to educational in titutions who preferred in their life time to superintend the distribution of their benefactions were John O.} Green, of New York, James Lenox, the Stuart Brothers, Joseph Sheftiield of New Haven, and George 1. Seney, who is still living, A fow of these fore their death. The total of the gifta of those noblo men of wealth reaches far into the millions, and is to-day bearing fruit. The late James Lick, of San Fran- cisco, was another of the noble band whose name is not born to die. estate of James Lick was estimated at $3,000,000, and of this fortune $150,000 was set asido for his son and the residue was to be distributed to the Bociety of California Pioneers, the California Academy of Sciences, and the Lick observatory, the California 0ld Women's Home, Mechanics’ In- stitute, the Golden Gate Park, free baths for San Francisco and the Me- chanics’ Sohool of Art, During his life time Mr. Lick set apart 700,000 for the observatory that is to perpetu- ate his name, i s Since George Peabody's death no more munificent gift has been made for purposes of education in our coun- try than that of Mr. John F. Slater, of Norwich, Connecticut, who last week announced the donation of one million of dollars to be used in pro- viding the colored people of the south with ‘‘the blessings of an education.” According to the donor’s wishes this sum will be invested by a board of trustees, and the acoruing interest em- ployed for the dissemination of knowl- edge among colored people.

R. head- The proclamation, duly Two measures regarding the prosi- dential election have been introduced into congress at the present session, differing somewhat in details, but agreeing on the main object which ia to provide a safer and less objection- able method of declaring the choice of the people for the chief executive, The bill introduced by Senator Hoar has already passed the senate. It provides that state eloctors shall meet on the second Monday in January instead of December; that each state shall deter- mine by its own tribunals any controversy as to what persons have been chosen of appointed as olectors, and that this decision of the state court shall be final, and the vote counted by congress as cast by the electors thus confirmed. 1n case the state courts are not called upon and only one return is received by congress, it cannot be rejected except by a separate vote of both houses. When there are two returns from any state, that vote is to be counted which has been confirmed by the lawful state tribunals, congress by its two houses, acting separately, being the judge which tribunal is the lawful one. A final provision is made that if the ocounting of the votes by Congress shall not have been completed before the fifth calendar day after the meet- ing of congress for that purpose then no recess shall be taken by either houre until the counting be finished. These are the main features of the 80 noticeable in the present method. The action of congross is made purely ministerial, except in cases where the judicial function is forced upon it by the state. The states are given the power of determining all contested cases by resort to their own tribunals, which would in all proba. bility be the supreme court, and the proviso that in case of any controversy not decided by the state, both houses shall agree scparately upon the votes to be count- ed assures fairnoss in the final decision by the national legislature, Mr, Updegraff’s bill, which receives the sanction of the house committee, is somewhrt more complicated. It leaves unchanged the time of the meeling of the electors providing that between the day of their choice in November and the Third Tuesday in December, on which they vote, the title to the office of elector may be de- termined, and that this title, if con- firmed by the highest court in the state, shall be deemed oonclusive. It further provider that congress shall be in session the sccond Wednes- day in January next, after the meet- ing of electors, and shall count the votes; that upon the reading of cer- tificates the president of the senate shall call for objections. These ob- jections, if any, must be madein writing and submitted without argu- ment, stating clearly and concisely the grounds upon which they are based, and signed by at least one sen- ator and one member of the house of represontatives before they are re- ceived. The other portions of the house bill, relating to competing re- turns, the validity of returns certi- fied to by the state tribunal, the method to be pursued in case of conflicting decisions from state tribu- nals and the final decision by the two houses voting separately where no judicial decision has been received are all identical with the bill passed by the senate, with one exception that both houses by their votes can reverse the decision of any state tribunal, A final and important proviso not found in the senate bill declares that, mot- withstanding the decisions and de- olarations mentionod, the title of any claimant may be tried and determined by action in the nature of a writ of quo warranto, and that the action may be brought prior to the actual entry or usurpation, and must be commenced within ten days after declaration of the cloction, of the defendant. Such action must be begun in the circuit courts of the United States in the district where the defendants or either of them re- side. Either of these measures would be a vast improvement upon the method now employed. Senator Hoavs' bill has the advantage over the Upde- grafl bill in making the decision of the state courts final. The house bill per- mits & conourrent vote of both houses to reverse the decision of the state court, OF course the object of the framer was to provide a safeguard against partisan perversious of the ju- dicial power in the states, but the proviso in the line of endless litigation, whioh is further helped by permitting an appeal from the decigion of the courts on the writ of quo war- ranto is open to serious objeotion. Nothing seems clearer than that the partisan heat of the eleotion should not be carried beyond the in- duction of the president into office, And yet Mr, Updograf’s plan would cortainly leave the door open to a logal controversy which would be likely to extend throughout a lerge portion of the de facte president’s term of office, E———— SIONERS ? As the o of th fmriff com- mission bill appears assured, the com- position of the commission becomes a | quarters. subject of newspaper discussion. Cor- | countersigned by Alexander the Great, respondents of a speculative turn ef mind have already apportioned the nine places on the commission among with a view to make the commission, as far as possible, representative of them all. These suggestions generally come from free trade sources, which manifest an undue anxiety to place the revision of the tariff in the hands of the farmers, planters, cattle raisers, railroand men—or of any class, in fact, except the manufacturers, who are relegated to two, or, at the most, three, places at the foot of the list. The discussion of the composition of the commission at this time is at least premature. First get your com mission.

The tariff commission, according to its champlons, is designed to look into existing abuses in the policy of pro- tection with a view of revising the tariff on a basis that will afford proper encouragement to American industry without creating or fostering monop- senate bill, which in many respects oly., A commission created for such seems to meet the failings whioh are| .. objeot should not be chosen from among men who are interested in con- tinuing existing abuses because such a ion will never revise the tarff. As a matter of fact the proposed tariff commission was designed to delay and postpone tariff reform and the effort to pack the commission with extreme protectionista affords the proof that this commission is destined to be a comm costly fraud. The charge that the suggestion to apportion the nine commissioners among the various industries of the country comes from parties who wish to abolish the entire tanff is un- founded. This paper, for instance, has always upheld the policy whereby America has built up great manufac- turing industries, that give employ- ment to several millions of working- men. We have always maintained that America should not allow the pauper labor of Europs and Asia to compete with her in the production of articles that can be manufactured in this country. We believe it is in the interest of American farmers and cat- tle raisers, and even of the railroads, to sustain home manufactures, and we believe a tariff has been necessary as a source of revenue to conduct the affairs ¢f our national government and moet the interest on our public debt. But we cannot and will not close our oyes to the fact that extreme protec- tion of certain industries that no long- er need protection has been the means of creating and fostering manufactur- ing moncpolies that have grown rich at the expense of the producers. It becomes the duty of the government to revise the tariff and abolish these protected monopolies. This should have been done by congress without a commission. The longer action is de- layed the more sweeping the change will be when the tidal wave of popu- lar opinion will enforce its demand. If President Arthur desires the tariff commission to be of any practical use in the proposed revision of the tariff, he will appoint only such men as are sincerely in favor of tariff re- form, At best, however, the commission is 8 mere makeshift to enable political trimmers and straddlers to tide over another campaign. ExTENsIvE preparations are being made for a mining and industrlal ex- position to be held at Denver in August and September. The .exhibit will include mineral products from Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, Da- kota, Idaho, Utah, New Mexico and Nevada. The riches of the whole Rocky mountains and Sierra Nevada reglons in precious metals, coal, iron, petroleum and timber, as well as the industrial products of the states and territories between the Rockies and the Pacific slope, will be on exhibi- tion, Thero is every prospect now that this novel enterprise will surpass anything in the way of mining expo- sitions that have ever been attempted on this continent. —— Tuk announcement that A, T Stewart & Co. offer their business for sale will not be a surprise to many who know how the affairs of the con- ocern have been conducted since the death of its founder.
